Question
Chapter 19, Problem 10P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
To explain thatwhen plants are exposed to the combination of light of wavelength 680 nm and 700 nm producemore oxygen than the plant exposed to the light of either one of the wavelengths.
Concept introduction:
Plants absorbs light in the range of wavelength 400-700 nm.The most abundant pigment found in plantsis Chlorophyll a. The light reaction referred to the photochemical phase, includes absorption of light, the release of oxygen, water splitting and formation of high energy chemical intermediates ATP and NADPH.

- photosynthesis. Historical Discovery Process The chemical changes that occur during photosynthesis have been investigated for the past 300 years. The general highlights of these discoveries help us to understand the basic process of photosynthesis. Three centuries ago people wondered where plants came from. They knew that plants grew out of the ground, but how that happened was a complete mystery to them. The first step in answering the question was to plant a small tree in a large pot supported off the ground. They did this so that the soil of the container was separated from the soil of the earth. Only the dirt in the pot was available to the plant. The people cared for the plant during one year. At the end of the year the small tree had gained 100 kg. (The actual data from this experiment have been changed to simplify the discussion.) 1. What do you think the experimenters considered as two possible sources for the substances (matter) that became incorporated into new tree growth?…arrow_forwardNeep help.arrow_forwardSmall explanation please. what is a product in the first stage of the Q- cycle? a. two electrons b.

- A3arrow_forwardHelp!!arrow_forwardSelect all that apply. What is true about the conformational aspects of coupling? O The proton gradient is involved in the release of bound ATP from the synthase as a result of conformational change. O The conformational states interconvert as a result of proton flux through the synthase. There are two sites for substrate on the synthase and two possible conformational states: open (0) and tight-binding (T). Dinitrophenol binds to and inhibits ATP synthase conformational changes, thus inhibiting ATP synthesis. The Fo portion of ATP synthase acts as a rotary motor.arrow_forward
